Following a rigorous series of tests, NOTIFIER’s Marine ONYX systems have approval for Marine applications from U.S. Coast Guard (USCG), Lloyd’s Register, and ABS (American Bureau of Shipping).

The Marine ONYX systems provide fast, effective fire protection fit for virtually any nautical environment, including oil platforms, luxury yachts, support craft and ships of every kind. The systems feature added protection against airborne particulates, moisture and electrical RF (radio frequency) interference commonly found in harsh marine environments. With built-in scalability, ONYX systems can be used for basic applications to complex installations requiring large numbers of devices. Flexible programming capabilities enable NOTIFIER ESDs to customize ONYX fire protection to accommodate the special needs of various marine applications.

NOTIFIER ESDs possess factory-certified training and expertise in the installation and programming of fire protection systems for a multitude of applications. Located around the world, ESDs can offer the timely service that is critical to ship owners, especially when a docked vessel’s fire alarm must be fixed or replaced before being allowed to depart.
